How dumb would it be to buy a used s class to daily?

As long as you carry your AARP card, it's no problem.

Not surprised to see beemers and porsches well represented through this thread, toyota owners know their buld quality and reliability
Mine's a '96 e36 M3 coupe.

One of these things is not like the others. Porsche quality is quite a ways above BMW.

FX I have to ask about the Mercedes since I know nothing about them. What year is it? Any more specs on it? You have a beautiful machine there and my curiosity has to know

 

[Relyk711]

Its not a problem...
My girlfriend always asks why I own so many trucks yet commute mainly on a tiny electric moped... Well. Yeah.

E63s Wagon?

They’re a lovely daily. I have a 2015 S550 will sell soon to get something sporty. Theyre super cheap now too.
Pros

Actually about 500 horsepower crank
The lighting, seats, tech, and screens are much better
Creature comforts like the heated armrests and steering wheel, ventilated seats
25 mpg highway so easily 400 mile range at 80-100 mph
parts are not that expensive I got some aftermarket rotors and pads for under $1200 installed at an Indy shop
put 18s on them or you will be bending/cracking the 19s and 20s all day long tires much Cheaper in that size too

cons

I had something wrong with the fuel system where I could only pump gas a gallon at a time, cost about $1500 to replace at the dealer.
The transmission has a weird 5 to 4 shift where on some hills (maybe once every two months in my experience) it will SLAM the gear in as if it’s a M5 V10 SMG in level 3 gear mode - it makes me laugh at everyone on this forum who complains about the 8 speed in the 200.

The stable. Long wheelbase RR is clutch with 2 kids in car seats- no scooting the front seats forward and super roomy for mom or dad to sit in between in the middle seat

320k miles between the cruisers
32k miles on the 2017 RR- 2 years ownership and flawless.

The RR apparently has an awesome self parking function for parallel parking.

Looking through this thread. Seems people who would spend over $80k for a Toyota have a stable of decent cars.

I'll play
Because I'm a nerd, I have a website for each of my rigs (current and most of the past).

2006 LBZ Duramax dually (for sale):
2012 Desert Fox toy hauler.
2023 Ford f350 high output long bed crew cab. So crazy powerful and comfortable.
2020 Honda Africa Twin adventure sports dual clutch transmission.
1964 Ford Thunderbird Landau (dad bought in 1974).
2009 Lx570.

That toy hauler is a bit heavier than your former Camplite. I can see why you're rocking the big trucks!

 

[Docwyte]

Africa Twin is too heavy for the riding I do. Much happier with my adv’d KTM 690 enduro. It weighs over 100lbs less than my riding partners T7, which is awesome when I have to pick it up from a nap. Picking up the T7 is a PITA!

Not all of us. My only other car is a 65 year old MG worth about $12k... Many cars I see here cost more than I paid for my house!

Nice, I have a 990 that I ride over on the Western Slope.

My 80 was my only car for about 6 months... $120 every week she's now retired and only for wheeling haha. Picked up a Manual 08 Honda Fit and love it! I used to have a few S14s but ended up selling them all in 2020.. Still miss my 240s ):

I had a 990 for awhile, the most unreliable KTM I’ve ever owned. By far the worst to work on too
